A grubby shoebox.

Cramped bedrooms. Very limited space for luggage and clothes. Dust and grime on shelves and around carpet near walls. Floor unwashed. Rusty shower rail mould in bathroom. Conditioner unit old and very loud. The place was tired.

It was wonderful staying at the property. Their amenities were excellent...only suggestion is to include drinking water in the cabins and increase the food options within the property. We had to go to main market down the street to get the food, however, overall it was wonderful staying there.

We booked a standard cabin. It was very old cabin and the flooring, sofa and kitchen are very old and not clean. Toilet was blocked in the second day and we moved to another cabin. Wifi has no connectivity in our room. It was terrible experience and will never go back to this place.

First time staying at Discovery Parks and can say that I will happily be back again. Truly enjoyed our stay there! Perfect location, walking distance to shops all whilst keeping the serenity in the area. Cute cabins that are updated and well kept. The only downfall was there was no internet working in our cabin. After a long drive from Melbourne to Goolwa, we were hoping to unwind and watch a film, but it was late at night and no staff were operating at that time. It showed the TV connected to Wifi, but there was no internet to the Wifi. Not sure what happened or why...but other than that, we were extremely impressed with the place and will be back again for a longer period of time!
